I took the Advanced Certificate in English for Journalism (Advanced) at Stanmore School of Business, and it was a great experience! The course content was really relevant to my needs, and I appreciated the focus on practical skills like interviewing and writing for different formats. The instructors were knowledgeable and supportive, and the online platform was easy to use. One thing that really stood out to me was the diversity of the student body - I got to connect with people from all over the world and learn from their perspectives. The course materials were mostly good, but I did find some of the readings to be a bit dry at times. Overall, though, I'm really happy with what I learned, and I feel more confident in my ability to produce high-quality journalism.

I recently completed the Advanced Certificate in English for Journalism (Advanced) at Stanmore School of Business, and I'm really pleased with the experience. As a journalist from Japan, I was looking for a course that would help me improve my English language skills and learn more about the international journalism landscape. The course content was comprehensive and well-structured, and I appreciated the focus on critical thinking and analysis. The instructors were helpful and responsive, and the online discussions were a great way to connect with other students and learn from their perspectives. One area for improvement might be the addition of more case studies or real-world examples from the Asian region, but overall, I'm happy with what I learned and feel more confident in my ability to produce high-quality journalism for an international audience.
